Candace Owens: Victimhood has become a mental plague on black America

>>Laura: LAST NIGHT I SHOWED YOU HOW THE LEFT ATE UP ANOTHER POTENTIAL RACIAL SITUATION, ENDED UP BEING A RACIAL HOAX WE THINK. THIS ONE FROM GEORGIA STATE LAWMAKER ERICA THOMAS. AFTER THEY ARE DISHONEST SPIN FELL APART WHEN THOMAS’ ALLEGED HARASSER TURNED OUT TO BE A CUBAN DEMOCRAT, WHO DOESN’T LIKE TRUMP, PART OF THE ANTI-TRUMP RESISTANCE, IT TURNS OUT THOMAS CHANGED HER STORY. YESTERDAY THOMAS CHANGED HER STORY BACK AGAIN. IF YOU ARE CONFUSED, SO ARE WE.>>I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT EVERYONE KNOWS THAT IN ANY WAY BY BACKTRACKING ON MY STATEMENT OR MY RETRACTING ANYTHING I SAID, WHEN HE SAID AND MADE REFERENCE TO GO BACK TO WHERE YOU CAME FROM, HE SAID IT RIGHT AFTER HE SAID NO, I KNOW YOU PEOPLE. YOU ARE IGNORANT. AFTER THAT, HE KEPT BERATING ME AND HARASSING ME, THAT’S WHEN I SAID, AND YOU CAN SEE FROM ONE THAT CAMERAS WILL BE PUT OUT FOR PUBLIC, I POINTED TO THE DOOR AND AFTER HE SAID GO BACK, I SAID YOU GO BACK.>>Laura: NONE OF THIS SHOULD COME AS ANY SURPRISE, GIVEN THOMAS’ HISTORY. SHE WANTS AN IRONICALLY CALLED HERSELF JUSSIE SMOLLETT #BiggestFan. A YEAR AGO THOMAS PORTRAYED ANOTHER’S LIFE, THIS TIME REPORTEDLY AT THE HANDS OF HOTEL EMPLOYEES AT THE WESTERN AFTER THE WAITRESS ASKED THE CAUCA THE WAITRESS ASKED THE CAUCI THE WAITRESS ASKED THE CAUCN PEOPLE ON BOTH SIDES OF ME FOR THEIR ORDER AND SKIPPED OVER ME. MINUTES LATER, THE POOL BOY ASKED ME FOR MY ROOM KEY. THIS CANNOT BE REAL RIGHT NOW. I AM A GUEST TOO, RIGHT? IS THIS TRUE? IMPOSSIBLE TO PROVE THAT’S KIND OF THE POINT. THOMAS IS A MEMBER BUT WE CALL GENERATION G, OR THE GRIEVANCE GENERATION. THEY ARE THE PRODUCT OF DECADES OF LEFTIST CONTROL OF OUR SCHOOLS, OUR AND ATTAIN THE INDUSTRY, AND THEIR BREEDING CULTURE OF RESENTMENT AND ENVY, BASICALLY A SOCIETY OF VICTIMS AND THE VICTIMS, NO MATTER WHAT, ARE ALWAYS RIGHT. HERE TO DISCUSS, CANDACE OWENS, FORMER DNC COMMUNICATIONS DIRECTOR LUIS MIRANDA. CANDACE, THOMAS ISN’T COMPLETELY TO BLAME. THERE’S THAT DEMOCRAT AND MEDIA COMPLEX THAT ALL TOO OFTEN REWARDS THIS KIND OF GRIEVANCE CULTURE. GENERATION Z, WE HEAR ABOUT GENERATION X AND THERE’S GRIEVANCE THAT’S UNPROVABLE.>>IN MANY WAYS, SHE’S A VICTIM OF THE CULTURE, AND I’VE SAYS OVER AND OVER AGAIN AD NAUSEAM AND WATCHES JUST THAT VICTIMHOOD AS ALMOST BECOME A MENTAL PLAGUE ON BLACK AMERICANS. THE WORD RACISM IS BEING SO OVERUSED THAT SOCIETIES BECOME DESENSITIZED TO IT AND REACTION CAN EVEN RECOGNIZE IT WHEN IT EXISTS. WE THINK EVERYTHING IS RACIST. THINGS THAT USED TO BE NORMAL CONFLICTS. GETTING CUT OFF WHILE DRIVING, HAVING A BAD CORRESPONDENCE IN A GROCERY STORE. YOU SHOULD JUST SHRUG IT OFF AND MOVE ON WITH YOUR DAY. NOW PEOPLE ARE CRYING AND MAKING VIDEOS AND PLEADING ON FACEBOOK TO SAY LOOK WHAT I EXPERIENCED TODAY. IT’S SAD FOR HER, BUT I ALSO THINK AS YOU MENTIONED EARLIER, IT’S SOMETHING BIGGER THAT’S HAPPENING IN THE CULTURE THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BEFORE IT GOES TOO FAR.>>Laura: LOUISE, THE INDIVIDUAL WHO SHE EXCUSED, SEEMS LIKE HE REALLY DOESN’T LIKE TRUMP. HE’S A DEMOCRAT, CUBAN, NOT A WHITE MAN. WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS?>>HE’S EASILY THE WORST PERSON IN THE STORY AND HE LOOKS AT A PREGNANT WOMAN AND DECIDES TO INSULT HER AND BY VARIOUS OWN ADMISSION CALLS HER A LAZY SOP. PROBABLY A TINGE OF RACISM THERE. I CAN’T BELIEVE HE WOULD CALL HER LAZY OB IF YOU DIDN’T HAVE SOME OF THAT. THE MEDIA OVER PLATED. THERE IS WAY TOO MUCH RACIAL TENSION, IF HE DID TELL HER TO GO BACK, IT’S UNDERSTANDABLE SHE MAY HAVE MISUNDERSTOOD IT BASED ON THE INCREDIBLE TENSIONS THAT WE HAVE IN THE AND THE DISCOURSE WE HAVE RIGHT NOW ABOUT THESE RACIST THINK SADDAM TRUMP USES FOR POLITICAL GAINS. SO THAT’S DEFINITELY THE UNDERLYING PROBLEM. I THINK THE PERSON IN THE STORY, THIS MAN –>>Laura: HE’S A JERK. HOW MANY TIMES DO ALL OF US IN THE COURSE OF MAYBE A WEEK HAVE SOMETHING HAPPEN WHERE SOMEONE IS SLIGHTING US OR SOMEONE SAYING SOMETHING, CUTTING OFF — HAPPEN TO ME TODAY. NOT ONLY CUTTING YOU OFF BUT CUTTING ME OFF WITH A MILLIMETER. THREE KIDS IN THE CAR. MILLIMETER AWAY FROM ME. AND THEN FLIPS ME THE BIRD. WHY ARE YOU FLIPPING ME THE BUR BURN?>>CAN I ASK A QUESTION? CAN YOU INSULT A BLACK PERSON WITHOUT BEING A RACIST? THAT’S A QUESTION.>>WHEN HE WENT WITH “LAZY,”>>ARE YOU SAYING THAT BLACK PEOPLE ARE LAZY QUESTION REQUIRED IS THE WORD LAZY — I’VE NEVER BEEN CALLED LAZY IN MY ENTIRE LIFE. WHY DOES THE WORD LAZY ME — I’M ASKING THE QUESTION. I ASKED YOUR QUESTION. HE SAID LAZY MAKES YOU THINK OF BLACK PEOPLE. THAT’S WHAT YOU’RE SAYING.>>IT’S A COMMON RACIST TROPE.>>THAT’S NOT A COMMON RACIST TROPE FOR BLACK PEOPLE. I’VE NEVER HEARD THAT. I THINK HE’S A JERK. I THINK HE IS AN ABSOLUTE JERK. [ALL SPEAKING]>>YOUR CALLING BLACK PEOPLE LAZY.>>IT’S A TYPICAL RACIST — IT’S NOT. LAZY IS A WORD.>>Laura: WE’VE GOT TO STOP. IT’S GETTING TOO HOT. I THINK THIS DOES GO TO THE POINT THAT WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO HAVE BAD DAYS AND PEOPLE SHOULD BE ABLE TO MAKE MISTAKES. HE PROBABLY MADE A MISTAKE WAS REALLY RUDE TO HER AND HE ADMITTED. THAT DOESN’T MEAN — MAY BE IS, THAT HE IS IN. NO ONE CAN KNOW. THE SECOND AN ALLEGATION GOES ON FACEBOOK LOVE, WHOEVER MAKES IT — I DON’T CARE IF IT’S A CONSERVATIVE OR LIBERAL OR SOMEONE IN BETWEEN, IT’S INSTANTLY PICKED UP IF IT IS VALIDATING A PROGRESSIVE WORLDVIEW. INSTANTLY PICKED UP. CONGRESSMAN GOES ON TV. PUNDITS WEIGHING IN. THIS IS WHAT TRUMP CAUSE. I THINK HE SEEMED TO BE SAYING GO BACK TO THE OTHER AISLE. NOW GO BACK TO THE OTHER ISLANDS GO BACK TO YOUR COUNTRY. SHE CHANGED HER STORY.>>A LOT OF THE DISCUSSION THEN WE HAVE ON THIS VERY SHOW OUR AGREEMENTS CULTURE IN AND OF ITSELF, JUST FROM THE OTHER PERSPECTIVE. WE HAVE AN AND CULTURE — YOU EITHER HAVE A GRIEVANCE ON THE SIDE OR THAT SIDE IN THE END OF THE DAY, I THINK OF DR. MARTIN LUTHER KING’S CALL, YOU CAN’T DRIVE OUT DARKNESS WITH DARKNESS. YOU HAVE TO DRIVE IT OUT WITH LIGHT. WE HAVE NOT ATTACK EACH OTHER THIS WAY WITH THESE COMPETITIONS BECOME NORMAL. THE POLICE COMPETITION, UNACCEPTABLE.>>Laura: THE LACK OF RESPECT THAT WE TALKED ABOUT IN THE ANGLE ALTERNATES, THIS IS NOT SOMETHING THAT HAPPENED OVERNIGHT. WE SAW WHAT HAPPENED DURING THE OBAMA YEARS, BEFORE OBAMA, BUSH, REAGAN, GOING ALL THE WAY BACK TO THE LATE 1960s. YOU GO BACK AND YOU WANT THAT RAW FOOTAGE OF THE POLICE VERSUS THE PROTESTERS, THERE WERE BAD ACTORS ON BOTH SIDES OF THAT IN THE DNC. NOT VERY LONG AGO. THAT’S WHEN IT ALL KIND OF BEGAN. THE DISRESPECT CUTS ACROSS MANY LEVELS OF OUR SOCIETY. IN A KIND OF AN SUB WHERE PEOPLE FEEL AFRAID. A LOT OF PEOPLE I KNOW ARE AFRAID TO SAY ANYTHING. THEY DON’T WANT TO SHARE A THOUGHT BECAUSE SOMEONE WILL TAKE IT THE WRONG WAY. THEY ARE FREE TO SAY THEIR OPINION. IT IS ALSO ANOTHER GOOD PLACE TO BE. CANDACE, ALSO WE HAVE BREAKING NEWS. CANDACE GAVE US THIS NEWS. SORRY, I FORGOT. YOU ARE BLOCKED TONIGHT. MAYBE AOC THAT YOU’VE DISRESPECTED HER. YOU DISRESPECTED AOC? HOW DARE YOU DO THAT?>>I CALLED HER AN INTELLECTUAL COWARD BECAUSE SHE SAYS A LOT OF THINGS AND THROWS A LOT OF INSULTS AND YET SHE WILL NOT DEBATE ANYBODY. SHE DOESN’T WANT TO DEBATE PEOPLE ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE AISLE AND I THINK YOU ACTUALLY BELIEVE WHAT YOU BELIEVE, YOU BE HAPPY TO SIT DOWN AND HAVE A DISCUSSION AND DIALOGUE TO GET TO THE CORE OF WHOSE IDEAS ARE BETTER. I DON’T BELIEVE SHE BELIEVES ANYTHING THAT SHE SAYS, BEYOND GETTING CLICKS AND RETWEETS.>>Laura: I DISAGREE. I THINK SHE BELIEVES IT.>>I DON’T. WHY NOT SHOW UP AND HAVE A DEBATE?>>Laura: MAYBE SHE’S NOT VERY COMFORTABLE IN DEBATES BUT I THINK SHE –>>SHE CALLS EVERYONE RACIST.>>Laura: UNFORTUNATELY THAT KIND OF ENDS THE CONVERSATION.>>IT DOES COME INSTANTLY. WE HAVE TO BE ABLE TO CALL SOMEBODY LAZY, JUST SAY AWFUL THINGS, BEING A BAD MOOD.>>I DON’T AGREE WITH AOC BUT I MIGHT BLOCK YOU AFTER THIS CONVERSATION. I’M JUST KIDDING. THE REALITY IS THE DEBATE HAS GOTTEN TOO COURSE AND WE NEED TO CHANGE IT AND I THINK DEMOCRATS IF THEY’RE GOING TO BEAT DONALD TRUMP IN NOVEMBER OF NEXT YEAR, WE CAN’T FALL INTO THE SAME TYPE OF RHETORIC THAT WE ARE TRYING TO FIGHT ON THE

John Lott says:

I once overhead one African American child call another African American child a racist because he'd said something he didn't like. The second boys father also overheard it. The look on his face was priceless. Clearly the first boy had been taught either directly or by observation that he could win arguments by pulling the race card.

Yes..Yes.Yes!! Today idk how people get a drivers license?? They are in the wrong and then flip you off and want to fight! I’ve been hit twice in the last few years completely not my fault, told to call the cops..I do, then they both get out of the car and try and steal my phone then I turn around and they took off. Their reasoning was they had a more expensive SUV so it was my fault for being on the road with a Honda Accord..Then I got spit at and threatened again by another prime couple (2 guy “gangstas”) they drove over a curb seeing they were in the lane to turn right, wanted me to slam on my brakes with cars behind me to let them in at 45-50 mph. And this wasn’t in the suburbs which in my state is mostly left leaning people. And not all but there are enough people that carry illegal guns and will shoot you over something so insane Sadly! We support Trump bought stickers but were too afraid of getting vandalized or hurt. We can’t afford to pay more for insurance so we never put them on. But make sure to get out and vote! I didn’t for midterm and regret it!!!

Tom Williams says:

The fellow who confronted Erica Thomas wasn’t being racist or even a jerk. He was an American, confronting another American questioning her as to why she thinks she is better or special from everybody else. He was telling her that American equality is American. The best thing Erica could have done was to apologize and say she didn’t spot that it was an express line. Instead she attacks, and then uses the incident for her political advantage and lies about it. Ironic that someone being called out for thinking they are better than anyone else, tries to turn it around by saying a person acted racist to her.

Paul Rains says:

So everyone is still trying to make this man out to be racist, hes a liberal. All the other liberals are doing is proving the facts that dems are more more prone to be racists than Republicans. Their whole argument about this man is defeating themselves in this argument over who is more racist.

I love how when he gets called on referring to black people as "lazy" he tries to deflect by saying "are you defending the guy being rude to a pregnant woman, ohh, that's just disgusting" . LMAO. Typical leftist tactic. I love how Candace often calls out the left on their "polite" racism.

Jacqueline McGrath Curtis says:

The problem is racism is being thrown out everywhere and we are in a culture that deems or thinks it to be true in every situation rather than assessing the problem and correcting it. Both sides of the aisle need to use critical thinking skills to enable us to move forward and not backwards which unfortunately it is happening way too often these days.

Thomas Sowell stated a while back that youth are not being taught how to think and in my travels i find to be true, he is dead on. Read online comments and so many are just nonsense and do not tell me that it is old people writing that way!

The real super women Candece Owens, this women tells it like it is . The only real racist are the Democrats, They always accuse the other party of exactly what they are doing.The American people have awaken, Trump president for life.

Rosemary Green says:

Okay so she was a fan of Jussie Smollett over a year ago, umm many people were until he lied.What does that have to do with Erica Thomas. Jussie Smollett had many people of all ethnicities/different organizations backing him up.He made the decision to lie. You have no point or relevance on that beloved.

He wasn’t a jerk. He was in the right she was jumping in front of a line that she had no right to use because she felt she could. The one that was demonstrating privilege and entitlement that day was he r.

Anthony Gurirab says:

Keith Shigemitsu says:

She was being an entitled twit thinking rules dont apply to her because shes pregnant. People will be annoyed by what other people may say or do but does not equate to racism. Freedom of speech allows you to speak your mind regardless of your political views…just because someone is a jerk does not equate to racism…Every single human i have ever met has bigoted or divisive views, but that does not make them evil people. If you hate someone because they support something or someone you dont support that is your problem not theirs. If you dont agree with my political views, that is absolutely fine, lets discuss our differing viewpoints without the name calling. As a free american we have the right to disagree with one another but still be cordial

Doc Holliday says:

Deb Ally says:

He said the guy probably wouldn't have called a pregnant woman lazy if he wasn't racist, are these people for real? He could very well do it without it being racism. Why is it always racism? maybe hes just a jerk who would totally call any woman lazy if he felt like it.

Switching political parties to make more money because in liberal circles you arnt good enough as a commentator so you join the dumber party to sound smarter and yet you don't is a mental plague on the human race .

Shawn Sitaras says:

You are f**** ignorant if you weren't in your you would know their problems in your community and you would do things to try to fix them not yell and scream racism every time somebody points out a flaw in your lifestyle in your area that's your only defense

Next time you see Ocasio or Biden speaking look at the inside of their left or right ear. Bidens left ear always has an earpiece that is molded in for speeches etc I swear watch and look carefully. Also, compare when Biden speaks at an event that isn't planned and the left ear won't have it..
